The Essence of Aikido
Morihei Ueshiba envisioned a style that could be both non-aggressive and still effective in a multitude of self-defense situations. From that vision came the art of aikido. As a student, you will be taught to respect the body of your opponent. The techniques should never cause permanent damage. The pain you inflict will be momentary. The aikido student is taught to search for eternal harmony. But this training has no end, for aikidoists believe perfection of character is never complete.

Nunchaku
One of the most feared Okinawan weapons was nunchaku, traditionally used to pound grain. But placed in the hands of a trained practitioner, the lightweight nunchaku became a symbol of speed and power. Nowhere can this be seen more clearly than through the eyes of Jiro Shiroma, inarguably one of the most talented and exciting weapons practitioners on the scene today.

Ultra. Podziemny świat włoskiego futbolu
Chuligani czy ostatni obrońcy wartości? Reportaż prosto z serca włoskiego ruchu ultras Włoscy ultrasi należą do najbardziej zorganizowanych i agresywnych w europejskiej piłce nożnej. Wiele grup przekształciło się w grupy przestępcze zajmujące się sprzedażą biletów, handlem narkotykami i morderstwami. Są skrzyżowaniem członków Hell’s Angels z chuliganami. Często są żołnierzami mafii, a także odegrali kluczową rolę w powstaniu skrajnej prawicy. Ale „prawdziwi” ultrasi twierdzą, że są buntownikami walczącymi z państwem policyjnym i współczesną piłką nożną. Mówią, że tylko wśród ultrasów można znaleźć poczucie przynależności, wspólnoty i...
Clara
Ele nunca foi à sua cidade natal, portanto não era filho daquela terra. Não frequentou a casa de sua mãe, naquela cidade. Não conheceu seu pai, o que foi uma pena. Nunca descansou à sombra das castanheiras da casa em que cresceu, na “velha província”. Ele chegou ao mundo bem depois dela. Na festa em que debutou, ele ainda era um “erê”. Quando ela, de branco, disse: “sim”, ele nem sabia ler e tinha medo do escuro. Ele foi crescendo à distância, longe do seu olhar de mulher. Seus doze ou treze anos, desperdiçou no lençol. Caminhou durante anos. Durante anos ela, também, caminhou. Foram erros, acertos, enganos, sonhos, tropeços e experiências. Vieram de “mundos” opostos e acabaram na mesma estrada. Superaram as diferenças e o amor, enfim, os igualou. Ele nunca foi à sua cidade natal, não frequentou a casa de sua mãe e nem conheceu seu pai, mas viveram uma linda história de amor.
Ultrà. Il volto nascosto delle tifoserie di calcio in Italia
Tra passione e fanatismo, la violenza nelle curve e i legami segreti con le organizzazioni mafiose Un fenomeno come quello degli ultrà in Italia non ha eguali nel resto d’Europa. Organizzati e violenti, molti di questi gruppi si sono trasformati negli anni in vere e proprie bande criminali, coinvolte in episodi di bagarinaggio, spaccio di droga e omicidi. Come accade per gli hooligan in Inghilterra e i club di motociclisti americani, spesso la criminalità organizzata o l’ultradestra si sovrappongono agli ultrà. A queste critiche i tifosi rispondono che la loro è una nobile lotta contro una forma di stato di polizia e contro il calcio moderno. Solo in curva, dicono, sarebbe possibile ...
